March Madness through the Sweet Sixteen: Second craziest since 1990

The first round of this NCAA tournament was the craziest dating back to 1990, and through two round (I don’t acknowledge the First Four as a round) this is the second craziest tournament over the same time period behind only 1996.  1996 featured a 12 seed in the sweet sixteen as well as a 1 seed knocked out in the round of 32.  2012 might be crazy, but all four number 1 seeds are still around.

Note: Projected madness is based on higher seeds winning all remaining games.

Cheers.
